Working for the West End – all year round! #dundeewestend

My colleague Michael Crichton and I would like to take this opportunity in advance of tomorrow’s City Council election to thank everyone across the West End for their support and warm reception on the doorsteps – it is really appreciated.


We would kindly ask residents to vote FRASER MACPHERSON “NUMBER 1” and MICHAEL CRICHTON “NUMBER 2” to allow us to continue to work hard for everyone in our local area – many thanks!

Getting things done – Eton Street and Oxford Street #dundeewestend


Following residents asking my colleague Michael Crichton and me if an additional litter bin could be placed in the grass area at Oxford Street/Eton Street, we contacted the council and this has now been provided.   

We have also asked for more frequent emptying of the nearby dog bin, at the request of residents.
